Tujuan share itinerary adalah atas faedah orang ramai. Budget sangat murah. Lebih kurang RM1200 dengan kejatuhan rm yang jatuh merundum. Terima kasih Shazmiey Abdurahman kerana memberi keizinan untuk teman share dalam blog. 

Alhamdulillah, minggu lepas baru balik daripada Seoul, SK from 15-20 Nov 2015. There were 3 of us, Jumaq, me and Zul which we met in this group. And we managed to survive 6 days with less than RM1200 termasuk tiket flight pada tahap currency yang sangat teruk ni. This is totally budget trip and kami tak pegi Everland ( we put it in our plan but scrapped it due to rain). Budget tidak termasuk belanja lain seperti ole-ole etc. Since all three of us are boys, so we saved a lot on accomodation, kitorang berjaya dpt tmpt stay 10KWon per night since kmi jenis yang tak kisah tido mana. And on our last night we were lucky that one us was interviewed by local news channel particularly things related on ISIS. Below are our simple itinerary and budget for further reference. We do have prepared our iti which includes everland which i'll attach in the group files.

This is purely just a simple budget for reference. But do bring enough money to Seoul, I brought only RM1000/260000KRW and managed to survive but we have to follow the plan strictly, makan mmg kena control habis and we do walk alot! It was packed and you better mentally and physically fit sebab padat dan kaki lenguh. For girls it might be difficult since you have to spend extra money on accommodation. We were staying at backpackers house which is dormitory. Any inquires do drop me a comment.

Salam.
